Soziale Medien als fünfte Gewalt: Strategische Organisation deutscher und finnischer Gegenredekampagnen auf Facebook
2023
Social media, as the fifth estate, increasingly influence public discourses and play a major role in shaping public opinion. Undoubtedly, they have the potential to promote participation and democracy. On the other side, they also constitute a risk for democratic societies, as the spread of hate speech and fake news has shown. As a response, forms of counterspeech organised by civil society have emerged in social media to counter the normalisation of hate speech and democracy-threatening discourses. In order to influence discourse in social media in terms of the fifth estate, counterspeech campaigns must be visible also quantitatively. In this ethnographic contrastive study, I analysed…
Social Media as an Opinion Formulator: A Study on Implications and Recent Developments
2019
Social media has a great influence on how information reaches us and how we form an opinion based on it. For many users, social media increases the variety of information and ensure its accessibility across different platforms. However, recent years have seen an exponential increase in the power of social media. Most often, the forwarding and sharing of journalistic articles serve the recommendation from the user's point of view, but recently, these platforms have been developed into an echo chamber to transport additional information or even a critical attitude. In addition, the uncontrolled influx of social media in different parts of the world favors phenomena such as fake news and socia…

Educare alla democrazia cosmica per un mondo di pace. La lezione di Ernesto Balducci
2022
Nel secondo Novecento Ernesto Balducci (1922-1992) elaborava l’idea di una democrazia planetaria nell’orizzonte del suo progetto pedagogico di un nuovo umanesimo. Si trattava di rispondere alla crisi che già segnava le democrazie occidentali, dove la violenza e lo scontro con “l’altro” prevalevano sul dialogo e sul bene comune. L’educazione a una democrazia sostanziale non può realizzarsi – è questa la lezione attuale di Balducci – se non come educazione alla pace e al dialogo interreligioso, entrambi orientati verso un “ecumenismo creaturale” che non fa distinzione tra le persone ma trova sempre punti d’intesa che conducono oltre le ideologie, le credenze, le culture. Un mondo di pace può …
Recognitive Arguments for Workplace Democracy
2020
In this paper we have a twofold aim. First, we wish to show that commitments within recognition theory lend themselves readily for arguments for workplace democratization. This is done through arguing that authoritarian forms of labour organization go against fundamental recognitive needs, generating injustice and unnecessary social suffering that could be ameliorated through giving workers a proper voice. In conjunction with this aim, we offer a defence of the idea of workplace democracy from the perspective of recognition. Our goal is not to override other arguments for workplace democracy, but rather to provide additional reasons to democratize working life.
Opolskie manifestacje w obronie demokracji
2021
Opole is a provincial city of the smallest region in the country. Nevertheless, its inhabitants manifest their views on matters important from their point of view. The analysis of the largest protests in re- cent years in this region shows that the inhabitants of Opole most often and loudly demonstrate in de- fense of democracy — both at the national and local level. In the chapter Opole demonstrations in de- fense of democracy, Katarzyna Daniel proposes an analysis of two problems that caused Opole inhab- itants to take to the streets, i.e. protests in defense of the broadly understood judiciary initiated in 2017 and demonstrations and strikes caused by the en- largement of the administrat…
Education and citizen participation: improving university teaching through Human Rights
2019
En este artículo se analiza la conexión entre una mejor educación, especialmente alimentada del estudio y concienciación de los derechos humanos, con una ciudadanía más participativa, conocedora de sus derechos y de la importancia y responsabilidad de ejercerlos en democracia. La mejor educación de los ciudadanos debe propiciar unos entornos deliberativos de mejor calidad, y en base a ello obtener unas mejores soluciones políticas. Y ya que las generaciones más jóvenes presentan unas características específicas de aislamiento y uso excesivo de la tecnología, se propone un modo de ejercicio docente inspirado en el sistema socrático de preguntas y respuestas permanentes para conseguir un alum…
